Prasad is offered to the gods to symbolically consume but then it's given to people to actually consume. You're not supposed to say no. People even sometimes carry prasad across the country and world so they can give it to others to eat.

Idk why any reasonable Hindu would get angry at someone eating prasad, regardless of who they are.
